Please comment on the article in NST dated March 4 “DAP yet to lift off, says astronau’. The National astronaut Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar took a swipe at the DAP which he said was still unsuccessful in launching their “rocket”. He said the opposition party’s “rocket” had been on its launch pad since 1969 but the Barisan Nasional only took a few years to send a mission to space. I think he has become so arrogant and what has he got to say now for the great win of DAP. He should be grateful that he was selected and despite the comments received like he was only a tourist passenger in the speace station. The person who invented rocket or the first person to launch the space station will not boast like him. God is great and he should eat his own words.

On this specific matter of Husam’s statement about PAS’ prospective win and the establishement of Islamic state in Malaysia, we have a claim and a counter-claim from two newspapers. Without further evidence, we do not know whether Husam has or has not made this claim.

However, please note that this applies only to this specific claim made by Husam.

The previous excerpts from diverse sources cited in my arguments to show that PAS is still committed to Islamic State and Islamisation are not adversely implicated by this specific case.

I’m a philosopher of science.

Something fishy with the 2 Ngeh/Nga.

Firsly, with Fong (Batu Gajah MP) and then greed of power by not following DAP central mandate on selection of MB. Getting a deputy MB better than nothing, only he knows???

You have 4 years.

“I mentioned that we are hopeful of taking 30 more parliamentary seats to
win power and not about forming an Islamic Government,” he said

Lee Wang Yen, you happily and selectively took NST and STAR reports to support your arguments.

Our best guess is that you are still a PHD student, possibly doing some research in religion or so.

It looks like you are more concerned with your own arguments and research topics than really thinking of some PRACTICAL and IMPLEMENTABLE ways to move Malaysia to a BETTER Malaysia.

Be more humble, and be more practical. The world is definitely much more diverse than what you could see from your research topics.

So sorry for all the Being Naive (BN).

Dear lbl,

Please do not trust what you read in the MSM. It can only report what the master wants and are all out to discredit DAP and others.
YB Kit, is such an experienced politician that I believe he knows what is good for Perak DAP per se. The challenge to walk the talk has just begun and all eyes will be on the states run by coalition parties and they cannot fail. Showcase it to the world that their power sharing concept is better than the BN’s, divide and rule.

Thus, leave the political issues to the politicians and let’s us learn to share our knowledge by blogging responsibly. Tq

Thank you for the legacy that you have had created ! I’d admired your courage and have since learned of your wisdom. Leaders must manage change. Things will constantly change whether we like it or not. Unless we manage the change, we may not like the changes.

Many peoples had spoken against your stand on the selection of pas rep’s as MB of Perak then and the fear of BN taking control again if the DPP coalition were to fail, triggers their outburst. Thus, the unending cries for you to toe the line. Your humility is strength in facing such a hostile crowds. I respect you for your stand against islamisation which is against the constitution and hope that the new MB of perak will look beyond the call of duty.

You are indeed a great politician and Malaysians are really blessed to have someone like you who truly stand his ground for democracy sake. I believe that greater things are in store for this country in the years ahead as Malaysians begin to tread the path of reconciliation amongst the races. Only in unity can we bring success to this nation and the principle of sharing is to be cultivated with sincerity without any poor being left behind.

A great nation is one that even the poor can be proud of as afterall we all have the same human gene and the image of our maker without being colour sensitive. Do continue to share your political wisdom with the newbies and teach them not to seek only after new knowledge as wisdom and experience of the past will be the greatest teacher of us all.

it takes a great courage to admit own fault and apologize, especially for a man. u will always have my respect. carry on the great job, ok?

I salute you. Winston Churchill once said:

“The price of Greatness is Responsibility”. You took responsibility for your actions and that is a sign of greatness.

I hop HRH understands the reason and motive behind your statements and have accepted your apology.

Yours truly,
For an equal Malaysia, My 2cents’ worth of opinion.

The Pariah Ngeh desperately wanted to be Deputy MB and agreed everything with PAS even though it is against DAP ideologies or policies.

It was the selfishness of the Pariah Ngeh’s brothers who back stabbed Uncle Lim and DAP putting DAP in a position that leave them no choice but to accept the PAS candidate to be MB. If not, DAP will be accused of disrespecting the Sultan.

DAP is did the right and sensible thing by compromising and forcing itself to work with PAS and putting Peoples’ Interest, Peace and Stability above DAP

The real culprit is the bad hearted ‘hock chew’ fellow who are power crazy.
It is not the first time they did such things, remember the case of Batu Gajah’s MP where our Uncle Lim became the scapegoat of the Pariah ‘hock chew’ brothers.

You are a BIG man ! To apologise in letter and personally go and see Raja Nazrin is superb!
Let us pray for this coalition to work.
Surely the mere fact that DAP-PKR-PAS could come to an agreement in Perak augurs well for the Barisan Rakyat.
Indeed MERDEKA!
btw stop rumour mongering on PAS …Muslims in Malaysia also do not want Taliban style government and neither does PAS

Our history book will always have you in it. Thank you Uncle Lim.

Please take care of your health and let someone else take up the Opposition Leader post in Parliament. We want to see you in politics for another 15 years, minimum.

Thank you.

Well done. Keep up the Good Work. Ensure to make a strong Government Penang /Kedah /Perak / Selangor / Kelantan.

Homework to be done by three of you. DAP/PKR/PAS.

Is there any DMB 1 and 2 PERAK / Selangor and I, request every state require Malay MB (this should be abolish once we take over Parliament) that means DMB must be Indian and Chinese

Please inform Dato Anuar / Pas leader too

There is demonstration by UMNO uncivilized Members in Penang. Please inform CM Melaka RUSTUM to revoke the Citizenship and send them to Java or Sumatra

You are what great men throughout history is all about. Hats off to you.

May you lead and guide our younger office bearers to emulate your persistences and righteousness and bring glory to our land called Malaysia.

With God’s blessing, you just might see your unwavering struggle come to pass in the very near future. I for one have great confidence in you. Apologies for some of my unrefined comments at the heat of the moment.

Thank you Sir.

We, Perakians are very proud of your noble and humble leadership in leading DAP to achieve your Dream today. Your immediate apologise to our beloved Regent of Perak showed that you are not arrogant like UMNO leaders but a learnt gentleman with full respect from all Malaysians. We salute you for being a great stateman.

Congratulations ! Perakians are very happy to have a Tiga Sekawan parties - DAP/PKR/PAS to govern the silver state in Perak. The Northern people said the Tiga Sekawan parties have strike GOLD jackpot in the 12th GE to grab power from arrogant BN who ruled for 50 years. It is indeed sad that BN got the “CROWN” of federal government but the Tiga Sekawan parties managed to got the “Jewels & Gold” of four golden silver states in Kedah, Penang, Perak and Selangor including 10 seats in FT KL . Now BN is a lame duck without the rich states to boost their egos and arrogant minds. Bravo! We hope that Tiga Sekawan in Barisan Rakyat is able to govern all 4 northern states with good governance, fair to all races, zero corruptions, transparency and fullfill your promises to the Rakyat.

Finally, Perakians hope that Tiga Sekawan is able to continue to serve the people of all states in the next GE and to take the CROWN away from BN. Please work hard to serve the people and dont easily loose the people trust. Otherwise, Tiga Sekawan parties will be removed by the people to let BN rule again. We hope that Barisan Rakyat will replace BN in next 13th GE to govern Malaysia for 50 years and beyond.

Thank you. GOD blessing always.

Best regards,
Perakians & All Malaysians.

The “oppositon” coalition Govt is a beginning era and DAP, PAS and PKR must work together for long-term gain and commitment to the rakyat. You fail, and you fall! Compromise and cooperate. Get professional advisors on how to manage Govt. You must succeed to ensure a true Malaysian society. Be honest, be publicly vocal and fight for the rakyat’s rights, and you will survive!

I feel that the BN will not be able to re-coup in the next GE if the BA keep on their toes. The media are now giving more coverage to BA, albeit negatively at times. This is a PLUS! When in the past has the media given such exposure to Opposition?

You need some time to adjust to your victories, but don’t take too long, and don’t make stupid personal announcements. Change your previous opposition mindset, you are now Government in some states!!

I very happy to hear that things are working out.

Now, I’ve been reading that some states require that the Chief Minister (CM) or Deputy Chief Minister (DCM) be a Malay & a Muslim. I haven’t problem with this, as long as the individual is a fair and an open-minded person. Having said this, how many CM’s who would otherwise fulfill conditions, be genuinely religious? I have my serious doubts if many are. This being the case, how can they actually be advisors to the Sultans? Besides, in this day and age, the Sultans must not only look after Malay/Muslim subjects, but also non-Malay/non-Muslim subjects as well.

Given the above, I feel that it would be better if the Sultan of each state had an advisory board comprising of religious and cultural experts, who could advise him on the needs of the different communities in his state. This advisory board could be mandated to resolve issues amongst the various groups, so as to avoid further occurences of issues involving the demolishment of religious places of worship, etc. Their stress should in fact be on unity and harmony of the various groups. The advisory board could in fact be consulted jointly by the Sultan, the CM and the DCM (s).

What do you think of the above? I hope to hear your feedback on my suggestion.

we want firework

we want firework

Whilst it is a necessity to work with PAS on a highly optimistic note, i think LWY has a point that we need to be informed, updated and some sort of cautions need to be exercised. LKS constant reminders to PAS not to propose hudud laws by frontdoor or backdoor is a welcome.

The current set of politician in PAS at present are very sensible based on their views and actions.

However one can guess what could happen (very possible) if some fanatical groups manage to take control of PAS in the future.
There is a possibility for the fanatics to twist the ideology to serve their own interests and by then the majority may be held to psychological ransom via subliminal means. It will then be too late to turn the non rational faith and emotional tide.

If we Malaysians can work together as progressive humans and modulate our negative animal instincts, we will be on our way to a better tomorrow..

next GE is 13………………

Congrats for the installation of Perak MB, and congrats that you’ve shown maturity in handling a problem when there’s a disagreement. Since you cannot change who the Sultan wants to pick as the MB, you (DAP Perak) can successfully negotiate with PAS on the exco part. As the saying goes, “failure means God has a better plan for you”, now everyone’s happy and the new Perak govt can get to work.

“Their proposal has left a big question mark over our future co-operation,” a visibly upset Dr Chen said while angrily pushing aside a newspaper article on the Pas proposal.” NST Online

Apparently, Chen Man Hin did not read Husam Musa’s later statement (which already appeared at that time and Chen was reading old news) where he also criticised the press:

“PAS vice-president Datuk Husam Musa has clarified that his statement on the party taking over the Government at the federal level was taken out of context. …
Husam urged the mass media to be careful in its reporting to avoid antagonising anyone unnecessarily.” Star Online

I think elder statesmen should know how to say “No comment” to press queries.
Obviously the govt media would gleefully report any sign of discord within the coalition.
Better still, let the official DAP press secretary (if there is one) or Secretary General make all the necessary comments, so that there would appear to be one voice and one consistent policy.

“Angkatan Rakyat sounds nicer. Also it will not confuse the people. Well just my 2sen worth.”

What do you plan to angkat?? I’m already confused!

can’t wait for the next 5 years to come

whopee !!!
